Jade Plant
Jade Plant is a well-loved succulent admired for its distinctive appearance and ease of care. Native to South Africa, this evergreen shrub features thick, fleshy, oval-shaped leaves that are glossy and often tinged with a jade-green color, giving the plant its common name. Jade Plants are known for their resilience and adaptability, making them popular choices for both indoor and outdoor gardens. They are often grown as houseplants and are believed by some to bring good luck and prosperity. In addition to its appealing appearance, Crassula ovata produces small, star-shaped white or pink flowers in the right conditions. This succulent is relatively low-maintenance, requiring well-draining soil, occasional watering, and exposure to bright, indirect light.
